A different pace

I kept saying I would blog, but just keep putting it off. Now, there is so much to write that I just don't feel like writing it all...

So, we'll do a recap :)

Well, I finished school and received my Masters! We found an apt in Chicago. I really like the area..lots of stuff nearby, yet not too close to downtown. The move here was HORRIBLE. Our uhaul broke down, we didn't get her until midnight, didn't have movers, and had to carry everything up three flights of stairs with just me and my husband....to top it off we had to unload and drive back immediately (a 3 hour drive). Boy am I glad that is over!

Aside from the horrible move, things have been okay here. I get homesick and miss my friends and family, so we have made two trips home so far to visit. BUT this Thanksgiving my husband's family is coming to us! So it will be nice to cook here and go to the parade and not have to worry about such a long travel.

School keeps me pretty busy. It is different for sure. Right now, I'm still trying to find the balance between school work and managing time. I still have not set a good workout schedule. The weather here is touch and go, and can rain (or so it seems) without a moments notice. So, I need to get to the gym, but travel is no easy feat in the city. Parking is difficult and public transportation takes a bit of time...but I have been teaching zumba! I teach on Wednesdays and starting next week I will be teaching on Mondays too! Exciting. Looks like I better get to practicing some songs since I got my homework done this morning. Hope all is doing well!!
